Australia launches biometrics checklist
As part of the Privacy Awareness Week in May 2010, the Australian Biometrics Institute will be releasing the Biometrics Institute Privacy Awareness Checklist (PAC) to promote good privacy practice.
Key objectives are to encourage the responsible use and development of biometrics and privacy protection. The aim is to lift privacy awareness across all membership organisations. There will be a requirement to indicate to the institute whether the PAC will be reviewed.
"Our aim is to continue to lift privacy awareness with all our members," Isabelle Moeller, General Manager of the Australian Biometrics Institute states, "It is absolutely critical now that biometrics are a fact of everyday life with passports, call centres and other day to day uses."
